When I was first looking at different platforms, your slogan was 'impossibly simple'. And it is, it's like having an assistant. It has probably saved me 20 hours or more a week!
Having registrations go through one well-designed system that integrates with our donor management system has not only been really helpful but it has allowed us to grow our education capacities. We've definitely grown our classes and enrollments over 100%.
I really appreciate that not only is CourseStorm really easy for me to use but its also really easy for me to teach a teaching artist without taking a huge chunk out of our training time so that they can access information as they need it.
Everywhere I have worked has used the ticketing service for education and it just never quite fits. Everybody’s always confused. CourseStorm is so much clearer and much more user friendly.
